Drop-in session for FIDELIS mentoring and peer to peer support programmes banner

On 21 April 2026, EDEN-FIDELIS is hosting an online drop-in session for its newly launched mentoring and peer-to-peer support programmes. This informal session is designed to guide potential mentors through the application process ahead of the 30 April 2026 deadline.

What You'll Learn and Discuss

Participants will have the opportunity to interact directly with the FIDELIS team to clarify eligibility and application details for five targeted programmes:

  • Support Programme #1: Trustworthy at national and international levels
  • Support Programme #2: Data curation, access and preservation policies
  • Support Programme #3: Fostering engagement between repositories and end users
  • Support Programme #4: Active Data Curation for technical repository staff
  • Support Programme #5: Training approaches for repository staff and end users

(Note: If you wish to join as a mentee rather than a mentor, you can simply complete the project's Expression of Interest form).

Trust-IT's Role

Trust-IT Services leads Strategic Alliances, Cascading Grants, and Communications for FIDELIS, which includes managing the TRUST-GRANTS platform. For this specific initiative, we directly support repository capacity-building by promoting these training programmes and open calls, ensuring vital peer-to-peer opportunities reach the right experts across the Open Science landscape.

Further details and registration are available on the EDEN FIDELIS dedicated section.
